U.S. WWII D-Day Clicker – Brass & Steel Authentic Replica for Collectors

Description

This WWII U.S. D-Day Clicker is a faithful reproduction of the iconic signalling device carried by American paratroopers during the Normandy Invasion of 1944. In the tense hours following their night-time drops behind enemy lines, soldiers relied on the distinctive double-click sound of these devices to identify friend from foe without revealing their position.

Expertly crafted from pure solid brass, the D-Day Clicker features an attached high-grade steel plate to produce a sharp, reliable sound.

A punched hole at the top allows for the addition of a leather cord (2.6 mm) or lanyard, just as soldiers often did for quick access in combat situations. Whether you’re participating in WWII enactments, adding to a historical collection, or teaching wartime history, this D-Day Clicker offers unmatched authenticity and durability.
